A friend suggested this activity to me and my husband. She joined us on the Manhattan, too, and we all had a great time seeing the NYC skyline under the setting sun. I was able to take some great photos of the city, the Statue of Liberty, and the bridges as we passed under them. The yacht is spacious! We were able to sit out on the deck and enjoy our cocktails, then sat inside towards the end of the sail. Overall, an enjoyable experience that I would suggest to anyone touring NYC! |

I just moved to the city and was told this is the way to see the city skyline & Statue of Liberty without being with all the tourist crowds. It was a smooth ride with a great crew. I was able to enjoy this with my friends peacefully. I will definately recommend this to all my friends and family that come into the city. Thanks SailNYC! |

My boyfriend and I had a great time on the sunset cruise! The staff was friendly, courteous and helpful. I liked that it wasn't too crowded; there were about 30 people in all, so there was plenty of room to see all the different views and move around. The cruise leaves from Chelsea Piers, lingers near the Statue of Liberty for a few minutes, and then travels up the east side of the city near the empire state building.
One word of caution: the website says the boat leaves from Pier 61, but it actually leaves from Pier 59. It's only a minute away, but can make the difference if you're running really late. |

Definately a fun way to spend the evening! Great views of the city, Statue of Liberty, and bridges to Manhattan. Very relaxing as the crew gave a little overview of the sites (and of course you could as for more info if you wanted), which allowed you to enjoy the views. We did this on our first night arriving in the city. It was a great start to the evening and ended at a perfect time to head to dinner in the Meat Packing District. |

As part of birthday trip to NYC, I took 20 friends on the magnificent "Manhattan". First we picked up box dinners at Mangia, and then had drinks at the port before we left. On board, we were treated to one free beer/wine/champagne, and after that the bar had a great selection.
The yacht is set up perfectly for relaxed cruising in the rear with big tables surrounded by comfortable built-in seating, where we enjoyed the boxed dinners we'd brought. The front is perfect for breeze in the hair, "king of the world" viewing of the skyline. Even the restrooms are lovely, with white roses and small oriental rugs!
The crew was welcoming, professional, and knowledgeable.
An excellent value, a gracious alternative to the Circle Line, and an experience we'll remember fondly.
We'll happily return in a New York Minute! |

This was one of the best things we did in NYC. You get an up close and personal view of the statue of liberty as well as the Brooklyn Bridge. Beautiful view of the city on a beautiful boat. The bartender and captain were incredibly nice and helpful as well. |

I took a dear friend from Spain on this cruise and it was the absolute perfect way to see the city from the water. The captain and crew were extremely friendly and accommodating. I would recommend this trip, unequivocally. |

Booking via Zerve whas easy and save. The Cruise whas perfect, a very friendly Staff and a professional Captain. We think Trip with SailNYC is a must to do for all the Stay in New York. Thanks for the relaxing Cruise.
Das buchen via Zerve war einfach und sicher. Die Rundfahrt war perfekt, die gesamte Crew war überaus freundlich und der Kaptain ein Vollprofi. Wir meinen eine Rundfahrt mit SailNYC sollte bei keinem New York Aufenthalt fehlen. Vielen Dank für die entspannende Rundfahrt.

I came in from out of state to celebrate my birthday with friends that I grew up with in NY. Unfortunately, the weather was cold and rainy and I was concerned that we may not even be able to take the ride around Manhattan. Being this was how we were starting off our night, this was a mood-setter. The boat took off on time, our captain was jovial and made everyone feel very comfortable and the setting could not have been better. My friends and I were already discussing what events we could use as an excuse to go on again! Thanks again, and I could not have started my birthday night any better way. |
